sxsw photo literacy pt ii.

thursday!

on day two there were 7 of us girls rarin' to go.
on the flight to austin, laura made a (boy)friend who invited us to a party at red seven.
there we saw:
hard lessons

fool's gold

lucero

then we trotted our way over to rusty spur to catch the end of the d'urbs and have a mini hamilton reunion..

after that lo sash and i went and hung out with our cousin tim and got some mexican food and margaritas at polvo's... delicious!

after that we went to meet up with our gals at the cedar street courtyard. jackie had arrived. our 8 pack was complete.
laura, our thursday hero, managed to finagle us into the blackberry party where we got to see:
sam roberts band

the delta spirit (this was a huge sacrifice for me because it was at this exact time that herman dune was slotted to play at buffalo billiards, missing them is almost one of my least favourite things to do, ever.)

i stayed so that i could see the black lips, because i've never seen them live before. two years ago, sasha, sarah, nichole and i missed them by five minutes at the mink in houston...

and last but certainly not least, we got to see primal scream.
not that i'm a huge fan or anything but it was just cool to be able to see them, even though we were pretty smashed by then...

we then wandered the streets and met up with chris bell (not before laura jumped on the side of an S.U.V. and grinded with it)
i somehow convinced the group to go to ms. bea's so that we could watch herman dune do a ten minute acoustic set at 3.20am.
it was getting close to that time and herman dune wasn't in sight.
i was pretty bummed but my mood changed while watching the ten minute acoustic set of best friends forever

that, and somehow finding a cab at 330 was a beautiful end to our night.
